Links on a Saturday

Sketch Fest is this weekend! And I am, as usual, doing other things and not drawing anything. *facepalm*

Plunge Magazine is a new paying market (token payment) focused on genre fiction, poetry and non-fiction about queer women. The theme for their upcoming issue is “Chase(d)”:

The chase between a criminal and a police officer.
Being chased by memories.
Chasing after a dream or priceless artifact.
etc.
Submissions will be accepted starting March 1; guidelines here.

Crossposted to Wordpress, Livejournal and Dreamwidth. Comment wherever you like.

A place to submit your short fantasy fiction

At a time when the rest of the U.S. is probably wondering if summer will ever end, we in Alaska are starting to notice yellow in the trees and a hint of bite to the air. Hence the new autumn-themed header image on my WordPress blog (from last year’s autumn photos — this is an aspen tree in the gravel pit between our house and the highway).

EMG-zine is now in the last half of their final year. They’re not a paying market, but they have good-quality short fiction, art and articles; they’ve published two of my short stories. Themes for the issues still accepting submissions are:

October – Magic
November – Wolves
December – Stars

(I’d like to try to write something for at least one of these! Deadlines are one month before the issue comes out: so the deadline for October is Sept. 1.)
